Story
Athena came into our home in March of this year and she has been very lovable and energetic! She is only 8 months old so she still has puppy energy and does playful biting, but she’s never been aggressive with anyone. We are rehoming her due to some stuff in our personal life and it’s hard to take care of her because of it. She has all of her shot and records, as well as her bed, crate, food and water bowls, and toys galore! If you would like to meet her you are welcome to come and do a visit!

Story
This is something I never thought I’d have to do, and honestly, it breaks my heart. 💔 I’m looking for a loving, responsible home for my pitbull bully, Saint.He is a very special boy who has brought so much love and happiness into my life. This is not because I don’t love him or don’t want him anymore. Unfortunately, because of where I’m going to be staying, I can no longer have him with me or have him out there with me. As much as it hurts, I know I have to put his well-being first.I want to find him a home where he will be loved, cared for, and treated like part of the family. He deserves someone who will give him the time, patience, attention, and love that he deserves. He has a great personality, loves attention and always likes to play. He honestly is a loving dog and just wants attention and space to play aroundSaint is three years old. He’s really good with people and kids and he has a very great personality.

Story
I'm looking to find the right home for my goofy, athletic, and loving dog. He has a lot of energy and unfortunately spends most of his day in an apartment while I'm at work. I know he would be much happier with someone who has more time, space, and an active lifestyle to give him the exercise and attention he needs.He is crate trained and fully potty trained, and he is very communicative and affectionate once he gets comfortable with you. He is friendly with most dogs and does well with cats. However, I want to be completely honest that he has shown aggressive tendencies toward small dogs and children, so I believe he would do best in an adult-only home without small dogs. He needs someone experienced and willing to continue working with him and give him the structure he needs.This is not an easy decision to make, because he is a great dog with a lot of love to give. I just want to find him a home that will allow him to be his happiest self.
